AI Use and Editorial Assistance Policy

Last updated: July 2026

Regal Ticker may use artificial-intelligence tools and other automated technologies to assist parts of its editorial, design and website-development processes.

This policy explains:

How AI-assisted tools may be used
Which tasks require human review
How facts and calculations are verified
How AI-generated or AI-assisted visuals may be handled
How confidential information is protected
How errors, bias and fabricated information are addressed
When additional disclosure may be provided
Who remains responsible for published content

Artificial intelligence is used as an assistance tool—not as an independent author, financial adviser or final decision-maker.

Regal Ticker — A Regal Group Initiative

Our General Position

Regal Ticker uses a human-led editorial process.

AI-assisted systems may support the preparation, review, design or technical implementation of content, but the final responsibility for publication remains with:

The identified author
The responsible editor
Dilip Kumar as founder and publisher
Regal Ticker’s authorised editorial process

AI output is not treated as automatically accurate, authoritative or suitable for publication.

What We Mean by Artificial Intelligence

For this policy, artificial intelligence may include tools that assist with:

Language generation
Text editing
Summarisation
Translation
Image creation
Image editing
Data organisation
Code generation
Search assistance
Content classification
Pattern recognition
Workflow automation
Technical troubleshooting

AI-assisted output may be created partly or substantially through automated systems.

The level of human involvement may differ depending on the task.

Why Regal Ticker May Use AI

AI-assisted tools may help Regal Ticker:

Organise large amounts of information
Improve article structure
Identify unclear explanations
Simplify technical language
Review grammar and readability
Develop visual concepts
Prepare draft code
Test alternative layouts
Identify possible content gaps
Improve publishing efficiency
Maintain consistency across learning hubs
Support website maintenance

The purpose is to improve clarity, efficiency and usefulness without transferring editorial responsibility to an automated system.

Permitted Editorial Uses

AI may assist with tasks such as the following.

Research Organisation

AI may help:

Group research notes
Summarise lengthy source material
Extract headings or key topics
Compare terminology
Organise official-source links
Build a preliminary research checklist
Identify questions requiring verification

An AI-generated research summary is not treated as a replacement for reading the original source.

Article Outlining

AI may assist in creating:

Article outlines
Suggested heading structures
Frequently asked questions
Beginner learning sequences
Comparison frameworks
Internal-linking ideas
Content briefs

The final structure should be reviewed and adjusted by a human editor.

Drafting Assistance

AI may help create an initial draft or partial section.

A draft may be substantially revised to:

Correct facts
Improve clarity
Match Regal Ticker’s editorial style
Remove unsupported claims
Add reliable sources
Add risk disclosures
Add original examples
Remove repetition
Improve usefulness

Unreviewed AI text should not be published as final editorial content.

Language and Readability

AI may assist with:

Grammar
Spelling
Sentence clarity
Paragraph length
Headline alternatives
Simplification of technical language
Consistent terminology
Formatting

The meaning of financial, regulatory and technical information must be preserved during editing.

Summaries and Definitions

AI may help prepare:

Introductory summaries
Key takeaways
Glossary definitions
Table descriptions
FAQ drafts
Short explanations

Definitions involving law, regulation, taxation, financial products or market procedures require verification against suitable sources.

Internal Linking

AI may suggest links between:

Beginner articles
Learning hubs
Related financial concepts
Calculators
Risk-management guides
Supporting definitions

A human editor should confirm that every suggested link is relevant and points to a live, appropriate page.

Human Editorial Responsibility

A human editor or authorised publisher remains responsible for:

Topic selection
Source selection
Factual verification
Calculation review
Risk disclosure
Article conclusions
Corrections
Publication approval
Commercial disclosures
Compliance with Regal Ticker policies

The use of AI does not remove or reduce this responsibility.

Content should not be defended merely by stating that an automated tool produced it.

AI Is Not an Author

Regal Ticker generally identifies a responsible human author for editorial content.

An AI system should not be presented as:

A qualified financial professional
A SEBI-registered adviser
A research analyst
A journalist with independent accountability
A legal adviser
A tax adviser
The responsible publisher

The human author remains accountable for material published under their name.

Source Verification

AI-generated statements may contain:

Outdated information
Invented references
Incorrect figures
Misinterpreted rules
False quotations
Unsupported conclusions
Confused terminology

Important claims should therefore be checked against suitable sources.

Depending on the topic, sources may include:

Government websites
Regulators
Stock exchanges
Depositories
Listed-company filings
Official notifications
Legislation
Court or authority documents
Recognised accounting standards
Reputable primary documentation

AI output itself is not normally cited as the authoritative source for a factual market, legal or regulatory claim.

Primary Sources

Where practical, Regal Ticker aims to use primary sources for information such as:

SEBI regulations and circulars
NSE or BSE rules
Depository procedures
Company financial results
Corporate-action announcements
Government tax notifications
Legislation
Official application procedures
Product terms
Market-data definitions

Secondary sources may help explain a topic, but they should not silently replace an available authoritative source for a material claim.

Fact-Checking AI Output

Before publication, AI-assisted content may be reviewed for:

Names
Dates
Definitions
Percentages
Formulas
Regulatory references
Historical claims
Company information
Exchange procedures
Tax terminology
Product conditions
Source links

Material information should be independently verified where reasonably possible.

The separate Fact-Checking Policy provides more detail about Regal Ticker’s verification process.

Calculations and Formulas

AI may assist in developing or checking calculations, but important formulas require independent review.

This applies particularly to:

Percentage returns
Compound annual growth rate
Dividends
Profit margins
Average share price
SIP calculations
Valuation ratios
Tax-related illustrations
Brokerage or transaction-cost examples

Before publication, Regal Ticker should check:

The formula
Units
Input assumptions
Rounding
Example calculations
Limitations
Result interpretation

An AI-generated calculation should not be published solely because it appears mathematically plausible.

Financial Content

AI-assisted financial content remains educational.

It should not be used to generate or publish:

Personalised stock advice
Automated buy or sell instructions
Guaranteed-return claims
Undisclosed stock promotions
Portfolio recommendations
Trading signals presented as certain
Fabricated market forecasts
False claims of regulatory approval

Market-related conclusions require appropriate caution because historical patterns and automated analysis cannot guarantee future results.

Technical-Analysis Content

AI may assist with explanations of:

Candlesticks
Trends
Support and resistance
Indicators
Volume
Chart patterns
Risk management

Such content must not imply that a chart pattern guarantees a particular market outcome.

Examples should be presented as educational illustrations, not certain predictions.

Fundamental-Analysis Content

AI may assist with:

Financial-statement explanations
Ratio definitions
Comparison structures
Example calculations
Terminology

A human reviewer should verify that:

Accounting terms are used correctly
Figures match the cited source
One-time items are not misrepresented
Standalone and consolidated results are not confused
Different reporting periods are not compared misleadingly
Estimates are clearly distinguished from reported figures

Legal, Regulatory and Tax Content

Extra care is required when AI assists with:

Laws
Regulations
Tax rules
SEBI requirements
FEMA terminology
NRI investment rules
Account eligibility
Compliance procedures

Such information may change and may depend on individual circumstances.

AI output should not be treated as legal or tax advice.

Where material, Regal Ticker should:

Check current official sources
Identify the date of the information
Explain relevant limitations
Avoid definitive personal guidance
Encourage readers to consult a qualified professional

Current and Time-Sensitive Information

AI systems may not have current information unless they are connected to and correctly using recent sources.

Time-sensitive information includes:

Regulations
Tax rates
Market timings
Company results
Corporate actions
IPO dates
Product fees
Broker features
Data-provider terms
Government rules

Such information should be checked against a current and suitable source before publication.

Quotations

AI-generated quotations should not be presented as genuine quotations from a person, company or authority without verification.

Where Regal Ticker uses a direct quotation, the editor should confirm:

The exact wording
The speaker or author
The source
The context
The publication date
That the quotation has not been materially altered

Paraphrased material should not be placed inside quotation marks.

Citations and References

AI may suggest sources or links, but suggested citations can be incorrect or fabricated.

Before publication, Regal Ticker should confirm that:

The source exists
The URL is correct
The source supports the statement
The publication date is appropriate
The information has not been taken out of context
A more authoritative source is not available

Broken or irrelevant citations should be removed or replaced.

AI-Assisted Images

Regal Ticker may use artificial intelligence to create or assist with:

Featured images
Educational diagrams
Concept illustrations
Backgrounds
Icon arrangements
Visual summaries
Image clean-up
Resizing
Format conversion
Layout concepts

AI-assisted images should support the educational purpose of the article.

Visual Accuracy

AI-generated visuals may contain:

Incorrect numbers
Distorted text
Misleading charts
Impossible objects
Incorrect logos
Inaccurate interfaces
Unrealistic financial documents
Misleading representations of real events

Images should therefore be reviewed before publication.

Important financial information should not be communicated only through an AI-generated image.

Images of Real People

AI should not be used to create a misleading image that falsely suggests a real person:

Endorses Regal Ticker
Made a particular statement
Participated in an event
Used a financial product
Approved an investment
Has a relationship with Regal Ticker

A synthetic or altered image should not be presented as authentic documentary evidence.

Logos and Trademarks

AI-generated visuals should be reviewed for unintended use of:

Company logos
Exchange logos
Government emblems
Regulator branding
Product trademarks
Copyrighted characters

Third-party branding should not be used in a way that falsely suggests endorsement or official association.

Image Disclosures

Regal Ticker may provide an image-level or article-level disclosure when an AI-generated or substantially AI-modified image could otherwise be mistaken for:

A real event photograph
Documentary evidence
An actual financial statement
A genuine user interface
A photograph of a real person
An official document

Routine decorative or conceptual illustrations may not require a separate disclosure on every use, provided they are not misleading.

Alternative Text

AI may help draft image alternative text.

The final alternative text should be reviewed to ensure it:

Describes the relevant information
Avoids invented details
Matches the actual image
Remains concise where appropriate
Does not repeat nearby text unnecessarily

Complex diagrams may also require a longer explanation in the article.

Coding and Website Development

AI may assist with:

PHP
HTML
CSS
JavaScript
WordPress theme development
Plugin development
Schema markup
Calculator formulas
Troubleshooting
Code review
Documentation

AI-generated code should not be installed solely because it appears functional.

Code Review and Testing

Before AI-assisted code is deployed, Regal Ticker should check where relevant:

Syntax
Security
Data handling
Performance
Accessibility
Mobile behaviour
Compatibility
Error handling
Existing website functions
WordPress standards
SEO output
Schema validity

Code changes should be narrowly scoped and tested to avoid disrupting existing features.

Security Risks

AI-generated code may introduce:

Security vulnerabilities
Unsafe database queries
Cross-site scripting
Incorrect permissions
Data exposure
Performance problems
Broken forms
Conflicting scripts
Unintended tracking
Plugin incompatibility

Sensitive website credentials should not be included in an AI prompt or shared through an unapproved third-party service.

Personal and Confidential Information

Regal Ticker should avoid submitting unnecessary confidential or sensitive information to third-party AI systems.

This includes:

Passwords
API secrets
Private keys
One-time passwords
Bank details
Demat credentials
Private user records
Unpublished personal documents
Confidential agreements
Security logs containing sensitive information
Personal identification documents

Where AI tools process information externally, the relevant provider’s privacy and retention practices may apply.

User Submissions

Information received through:

Contact forms
Grievances
Copyright complaints
Emails
Accessibility reports
Security reports

should not be submitted to an AI tool unless there is a legitimate need and appropriate safeguards are considered.

Sensitive or identifying information should be removed or minimised where practical.

Third-Party AI Providers

Regal Ticker may use independent AI or software providers.

Such providers may have their own:

Terms of use
Privacy policies
Data-retention rules
Training policies
Security practices
Geographic processing locations
Intellectual-property conditions

Regal Ticker does not control every action of an independent provider.

Tools should be selected and used with reasonable attention to their terms and the sensitivity of the information involved.

Copyright and Originality

AI output may resemble existing works or contain material influenced by training data.

Regal Ticker should review AI-assisted content for:

Unusually distinctive copied wording
Infringing images
Third-party logos
Copyrighted characters
Long unattributed quotations
Replication of protected article structures
Material that appears taken from another publisher

AI assistance does not remove the obligation to respect copyright and attribution requirements.

Plagiarism

Regal Ticker does not permit plagiarism merely because the copied or closely reproduced material was supplied by an automated system.

Editors should:

Rewrite generic draft material where necessary
Add original analysis and examples
Verify quotations
Attribute third-party ideas
Avoid substantial unauthorised reproduction
Review suspiciously distinctive passages

Bias and Fairness

AI systems may reproduce bias, stereotypes or incomplete perspectives.

AI-assisted content should be reviewed for:

Unfair assumptions
Discriminatory language
Cultural bias
Misleading generalisations
Unequal treatment
Unsupported claims about groups
Exclusion of important context

Financial education should remain respectful and focused on relevant facts.

Hallucinations and Fabricated Information

AI systems may produce confident but false information, sometimes described as hallucination.

Examples may include:

Invented laws
Fake circular numbers
Non-existent sources
Fabricated quotations
Incorrect company data
False historical events
Imaginary products
Unsupported market statistics

Such information must not be knowingly published.

When a material AI-assisted error is discovered, Regal Ticker should correct it under the Corrections Policy.

Disclosure of AI Assistance

Regal Ticker may disclose the use of AI assistance when it is material to understanding how content was created.

A disclosure may be appropriate when:

A substantial portion of the article originated through AI drafting
A visual could be mistaken for a real photograph
AI performed a significant data transformation
A tool or experiment is specifically based on AI output
Transparency would materially affect reader understanding
A commercial or platform rule requires disclosure

A general policy disclosure may be sufficient for routine assistance such as:

Grammar review
Spelling correction
Outline suggestions
Formatting
Code suggestions
Image resizing
Basic visual concept development

Disclosure decisions should be based on whether the information would reasonably matter to readers.

Example Disclosure Wording

Where a specific disclosure is appropriate, Regal Ticker may use wording such as:

AI-assisted tools were used during the preparation of this article. The content was reviewed, verified and approved by the named human author.

For an image:

This is an AI-assisted educational illustration and does not depict an actual event.

For data organisation:

Automated tools assisted with organising the source material. The figures and conclusions were independently reviewed.

No Hidden Automated Publication

Regal Ticker should not intentionally publish fully automated financial articles without reasonable human review.

Automated systems should not independently decide to:

Publish a market recommendation
Issue a correction
Accuse a person or company
Make a legal conclusion
Approve sponsored content
Respond finally to a grievance
Alter important financial calculations
Remove content following a legal complaint

Material editorial decisions require human oversight.

AI in Reader-Facing Tools

Regal Ticker may introduce AI-assisted website tools in the future.

Before publication, such a tool should clearly explain:

Its purpose
Its limitations
Whether user inputs are transmitted externally
Whether information is stored
Whether results are personalised
That output may contain errors
That it does not replace professional advice

An AI tool should not be described as a registered adviser or guaranteed decision system.

Financial Chatbots

If Regal Ticker introduces a chatbot, it should not be designed to provide:

Personalised buy or sell recommendations
Guaranteed returns
Automated portfolio management
Unverified regulatory guidance
Instructions based on confidential financial records

The chatbot should clearly identify its educational nature and limitations.

Corrections

AI-assisted content is subject to the same correction standards as other Regal Ticker content.

When a material error is confirmed, Regal Ticker may:

Correct the statement
Update the source
Recalculate figures
Replace an image
Add clarification
Add a correction note
Remove unsupported content
Update the publication or revision date

The use of AI is not a reason to avoid acknowledging or correcting an error.

Reader Feedback

Readers may report concerns involving:

Fabricated information
Incorrect sources
AI-generated factual errors
Misleading images
Plagiarism
Biased wording
Incorrect calculations
Missing disclosure
Unsafe AI-generated code affecting a public tool

AI literacy is treated as part of responsible editorial practice.

Ownership and Commercial Influence

Use of an AI provider does not mean that the provider:

Owns Regal Ticker

Sponsors Regal Ticker
Endorses its articles
Controls editorial decisions

A paid AI subscription is a software-service relationship unless another material commercial relationship is separately disclosed.
